A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 404

In the swimming pool, ripples danced on the clear water surface.

The man pinned the woman against the pool wall, his charming voice breaking the silence, “Eleanor, you haven’t said you love me yet”

Saying “I love you” was a promise. Once spoken, it was like a pledge to the one you love.

Eleanor, lacking courage, looked at the bright moonlight in the night sky, feeling a bit lost.

Bemard, hugging the woman tightly in front of him, quietly waited for her to say ‘I love you‘, but the response never came.

He chuckled bitterly, “Guess I was asking for too much.”

Eleanor opened her mouth to say something, but the man had already lifted her up, wrapped her in a towel, and carried her back to the bathroom.

That night, Bemard didn’t say much, just held her tightly from behind, as though that was enough.

Eleanor glanced back at him a few times, but he seemed quiet. It wasn’t until she was tossing and turning and unable to sleep, that he slowly opened his eyes.
